N2Growth Brand
Brand Elements
The N2Growth Visual Identity System currently comprises five core elements that help unify and communicate our brands with consistency and clarity. They include our logos, the We find and develop the world’s best leaders tagline, the N2Growth typography and color palette. Together, they help convey the N2Growth visual brand identity.
Logo
2 Types of Logo
The N2Growth brand logos, the Logo / Symbol Light, and Logo / Symbol Dark. Each comprises two elements: typography, and the N2 symbol. These elements not only simplify and unify our brand, but also help increase recognition of our services.
In addition, the N2 symbol may be used on its own whenever the N2Growth logo will appear multiple times throughout a document.
Logo Dark
Symbol Dark
N2Growth’s brand Logo / Symbol Dark is to be used against a light colored background. I.e.. Logo Dark on white background.
Logo Light
Symbol Light

N2Growth’s brand Logo White is to be used ONLY against N2 Orange and Dark Gray colored background. Please reference the color section of this page, to validate correct orange and dark gray.
Clear Space
Minimum clear space around the logo ensures visibility and clarity. The N2Growth Logo should be kept clear of other logos and design elements. To measure clear space, the layout unit of measurement, “o,” is used. “o” is derived from the letter “o” in the word Growth; each”o” unit is equivalent to 1X. The minimum clear space required around the logo is 1X, both horizontally and vertically.

Note: Colors will not match exactly across various media applications. This is due to the differences between the displaying media and type of reproduction. For instance, colors will appear more vibrant in digital than on paper because digital is a backlit surface, as opposed to paper, which is an opaque surface. Even within the same media, applications may appear slightly different. For example, computer screens may be calibrated differently, and paper materials have different hues and levels of opacity.
Typography
Typography provides a strong, unifying element and can help convey a consistent brand voice across various marketing communications. Our font is approachable, human and highly technical, and it has been conscientiously engineered.

The selected and acceptable weights are Light, Regular, Medium, Bold and Black. While additional weights are available within the Lato Font family, these are the only five that should be used unless a specific case otherwise demands.
